ABC STORE SUCCESS
(Continued from page two)
end. Since these stores are not pri
marily operated for gainful suc
cess, but to control by limitation
the use of drink, then the logical
thing to do is to make the setup ,
such that every possible means will
be put in operation to hinder, dis
count and curtail the selling and
use of liquor.
If the wets were sincere in want
ing ABC stores to regulate liquor
through a system which would lead
to temperance and ultimately total
abstinence, than no user of the
stuff should have anything what
ever to do with its sale through
county means and methods.
A clerkship was offered to a
spendid citizen of our town and he
refused it. We were not surprised.
A consistent dry would not have the
job under any circumstances, and
the county is having a hard time
getting the type of men needed to
make the ABC stores accomplish
their proclaimed and desired end.

THE 7.EBULt»N RECORD. ZEBULON. NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, AUGUST SIXTH, 1937.
Recorder’s Court
Only about six cases were pass
ed on by local Recorder’s Court on
Wednesday, yet it took the whole
day. Guess it was just too hot for
Judge Rhodes to rush things. Here
they are with all the aches and
pains left out except those that
have not been yet:
John Holland was driving a high
way truck along the road below
the Zebulon cemetery while he
thought of impersonal matters or
more indefinite things. Three lit
tle Negroes were also travelling
along that part of life’s road John
hit one, missed two and went on his
way, unconscious of the damage
done to one little Negro boy. For
nearly three months the boy was
being rebuilt in a hospital. The
'court declared John guilty of reck
less driving and sentenced him to
keep his job working for the state
for 60 days without pay. Then
changed the sentence to a fine of
$25.00 and costs.
Herbert Shearon felt the respon
sibilities of a family too heavy and
tried to evade them, being charged
with abandonment. The judge said
that was enough to justify Her
bert’s working for the state for
about 18 months. Then, remember
ing the wife and children who
would be no better off than before,
he said “get a job that will provide
$7.50 a month for the support of
your children from Aug. 7 and keep
on doing it till I tell you to stop’’
And—“further, get some one to
give a justified bond that you car
ry out the orders of this court.”
Julius Moss wanted to help de
prive Wake county of some of its
ABC store revenue, so got some
thing better or worse than the
county sells to make its citizens
feel good or bad as they may de
sire. It's terrible for little brother
to sneak and do what big brother
does and good old Wake frowns on
even a colored citizen’s horning in
on its monopoly. So Julius was
stuck for 30 days of hot August
weather sweating out his bootleg
inclination on the state highways, j
Vernon Reed was accused of I
breaking and entering some one’s
domicile, home or something of the ;
sort. The judge found that Vernon j
probably did just what the warrant
asserted, so he was bound over to j
the Wake County Superior Court
under a S2OO bond.
Ernest Williams may have heard
about how Julius was raking in
the sheckles from the sale of boot
leg liquor for he seemed to haxe
tried to beat the county at its bus
i iness. But “it just can’t be did”.
The court gave him his choice be
tween working the highways for
60 days or pay a fine of $25.00, the
costs of the case and remain (which
| means begin now) of good behav
ior for the next two years.
C. H. Hagwood was accused by
the court of false pretense and dis
posing of mortgaged property. Af
ter listening to the evidence the
court seemed undecided, so reserv
ed judgment till the September
term.
